OPERATIONAL NOTES
Thank you for your purchase of the SHARP electronic calculator, model QS-2130.
To insure trouble-free operation of your SHARP calculator, we recommend the following:
1. The calculator should be kept in areas free from extreme temperature changes, moisture, and
dust.
2. A soft, dry cloth should be used to clean the calculator. Do not use solvents or a wet cloth.
3. The solar cell is delicate. It should not be pressed or tampered with.
4. If service should be required on this equipment, use only a SHARP servicing dealer, a SHARP
approved service facility or SHARP repair service where available.

CONSTANT MODE SELECTOR:
“K” position:
The following constant functions will be performed.
Multiplication: The calculator will automatically remember the first number entered
(the multiplicand) and the
instruction.
Division:
The calculator will automatically remember the second number entered
(the divisor) and the
instruction.
“•” position:
Neutral
2
ROUNDING SELECTOR:
“ ” position:
In multiplication and division, an answer is rounded up.
“5/4” position: In multiplication and division, an answer is rounded off.
“ ” position:
An answer is rounded down.
Note: In addition and subtraction or floating decimal mode, an answer is rounded
down.
3
DECIMAL/ADD MODE SELECTOR:
1. Decimal position (F, 3, 2, 0)
Presets the number of decimal places in the answer.
In the “F” position, the answer is displayed in the floating decimal system.
2. Add mode position (A):
The decimal point in addition and subtraction entries is automatically positioned to
the 2nd digit from the lowest digit of an entry number. Use of the add mode permits
addition and subtraction of numbers without an entry of the decimal point. Use of the
,
and
keys will automatically override the Add Mode and decimally correct
answers will be displayed.

POWER SUPPLY
This calculator has a solar cell and is energized by electrical energy produced by the solar cell. The
solar cell converts luminous energy directly into electrical energy by utilizing the photovoltaic effect.
Brightness for operation
If the light exposed to the solar cell is insufficient, the calculator is not powered to operate.
With the brightness criterion below, operate the calculator at 150 Iux or more.
Outdoors or by the window:
Incandescent lamp:
Fluorescent lamp:
Use the calculator where it is
not exposed to direct sunlight
but receives enough illumination for comfortable reading.
Use the calculator wherever it
receives the same illumination as attained within 2.5
meters of a 100 Watts incandescent lamp.
Use the calculator wherever
it receives the same illumination as attained within 1.5
meters of a 15 Watts fluorescent lamp.
Backup Battery
If the light exposed to the solar cell is insufficient (150 Iux or lower), the backup battery is turned on
automatically to operate the calculator.
8
Replacing the Backup Battery
The backup battery can support the solar cell for approximately seven years at room temperature
(20°C/68°F).
If a weak battery is left in the calculator, the memory contents may be lost.
When to replace:
• At least once every seven years, even if the calculator is functioning properly.
• The memory contents become null.
• The display dims in dark places.
key after the power is
• The display will not appear in insufficient lighting by pressing the
automatically turned off.
How to replace:
1. Turn the calculator face down with the folding support at the bottom. Lift the support up.
2. Pressing lightly on the battery cover, slide the cover off in the direction of the arrow. See Fig. 1.
3. Place a pointed object in the space shown in Fig. 2 and, using the object as a lever, Iift the battery
out.
4. Install the new battery with the ⊕ side up as shown in Fig. 3.
5. Place the battery cover down as shown in Fig. 4.
6. Slide the cover in the direction shown in Fig. 5 until it clicks into place.

“MEMORY SAFE GUARD” function — The contents of the memory are retained even when the
calculator is turned off. A value stored in memory will thus remain until it is changed or until the
backup battery runs out.
Automatic Power-Off function (A.P.O.):
This calculator is automatically turned off approximately 7 minutes after the last key operation to
save the battery.
